I met Tessa in the world of skiing. Tessa was one of the most calculated, responsible, insightful, and strong skiers that I met. She quickly became the skier that I trusted most. Not only was she incredibly safe and thoughtful, as well as an amazing athlete, she was one of the most relaxed skiers to be with and made every situation and condition fun and light hearted.

I met Tessa in the world of skiing. Tessa was one of the most calculated, responsible, insightful, and strong skiers that I met. She quickly became the skier that I trusted most. Not only was she incredibly safe and thoughtful, as well as an amazing athlete, she was one of the most relaxed skiers to be with and made every situation and condition fun and light hearted. I asked Tessa to work with my two children, both who have autism. Knowing that Tessa was a certified Child Autism Therapist. Tessa was a miracle worker with my two children. She worked for me regularly, and often dog sat as well. Our dog is fairly easy to work with, and she was wonderful and responsible and energetic with our dog. Tessa was not afraid to roll in the mud with our dog and keep our dog beyond happy, but she would also take the time afterwards to wash the mud off the dog and clean the house. She would often clean the house unasked. I have to tell you that Tessa is a miracle worker. Great with the dog, the two kids, keeping the house clean, being responsible and fun to work with. Tessa is a one of a kind person and you are lucky if she blessed your life.

USE TESSA. SERIOUSLY. Not only is Tessa REALLY responsible and on the ball, she has a genuine love for dogs and working with them. She really appreciates the time she spends with my four legged friends and they really appreciate the time she spends with them too. Tessa is very responsible and loves taking the dogs out. She knows how to interact with each dog. One of my puppies is very skittish and normally does ...

USE TESSA. SERIOUSLY. Not only is Tessa REALLY responsible and on the ball, she has a genuine love for dogs and working with them. She really appreciates the time she spends with my four legged friends and they really appreciate the time she spends with them too. Tessa is very responsible and loves taking the dogs out. She knows how to interact with each dog. One of my puppies is very skittish and normally does not like anyone but loves Tessa and is very friendly with her. Tessa is really patient and understanding to each dogs needs. Tessa is a social worker and has done years of behavior therapy which has led her to be the most insightful and amazing dog sitter that I have ever had.

Wowowow Tessa is great. Very professional to work with and extremely loving to my dogs. Tessa is a phenomenal athlete and I think that my dogs prefer when I am gone and they have Tessa to dog sit because she takes them on really long walks and runs and they always are happily worn out. My dogs give Tessa the biggest kisses when she walks through our door to pick them up. Besides the fact ...

Wowowow Tessa is great. Very professional to work with and extremely loving to my dogs. Tessa is a phenomenal athlete and I think that my dogs prefer when I am gone and they have Tessa to dog sit because she takes them on really long walks and runs and they always are happily worn out. My dogs give Tessa the biggest kisses when she walks through our door to pick them up. Besides the fact that my dogs love Tessa, I have really enjoyed working with her. She is dedicated to what she does, loving to my dogs, easy to work with. Tessa is often off in the mountains with many furry friends, so be patient if it takes her an hour or two to respond. She is well worth the wait.

I have had dogs since I was born and have a deep love and connection for dogs. I spend most of my time running and playing in the mountains and always love a furry companion to join. I am responsible and hardwork and have time to play and walk your dogs. I have dog sat for the past 15 years everything from puppies to elderly dogs. I am loyal and reliable and truly love my time spent with dogs. I have had a lot of experience with bathing dogs and cleaning up after dogs (even sick dogs). I am very aware of each dogs specific needs and am very flexible to the needs of owners. I have a passion for what I do and for dogs.

What Tessa would like to know about your dog

I have no breed preferences, and a love for all dogs. I would like to know if they are potty trained (not a problem if not and I am willing to do training), if there are any specific needs that the dog has, if they are agressive, if the dog gets along with other dogs and people, if the dog chases deer, if they listen and can be off a leash, things the dog is afraid of, if the dog is allergic to anything, and any other information the owner deems important to the health and safety and satisfaction of the dog.

When Tessa watches your pet

The activities that dogs will enjoy under my care will be long walks, hikes, and runs. We will stay in shady areas on hot days and go early on hot days. I usually hike up waterworks, jumbo, and the rattlesnake but am open to other places. I love to go to parks and play catch or just snuggle and give belly rubs. I am especially keen on active activities. But also work with senior dogs on just giving attention and short walks.
